Constable had to come and take him away...
If I ruled the world, I would pass a law that anyone who considers themself a music fan would be required to listen to Pet Sounds, all the way through, at least once. It's sad to say that when most people these days think of The Beach Boys, they think of inconsequential "bubblegum" music, remembering the hits like "Surfin' USA", "California Girls" and "Fun Fun Fun". Although there's actually nothing really wrong with those songs, it's too bad that they overshadow the absolute brilliant experience of the album that is Pet Sounds. I mean, it made the #2 spot on Rolling Stone Magazines "RS500" greatest albums of all time. Also, the song "Pancreas" from Weird Al's latest album (which is released today in Canada) is mostly a tribute to this era of Brian Wilson's brilliance.
